There is a lot of tech debt due to the culture, but in recent years there is more incentive to shrink it.. (You are evaluated for "better engineering" initiatives... But you still need to deliver impact every half)
Meets Most is around 10% of people.. 2 consecutive MM = PIP
There is a swe ladder.
People get credit for making significant better engineering (dealing with tech debt) investments, some people believe that not enough.
Meets most and below is not common, but from what I hear- more common than google. You are expected to meet the expectations of your level every half, no excuses (unless out on a lengthy leave). If you dont, you'll get a meets most (but no risk of termination if overall trajectory is good).
Promo process is very different because the manager drives the process and decisions are not made by some distant committee.
